Indonesian Journal of Environmental Law and Sustainable Development(2023)
摘要
Celestial bodies had always been part of the process of volatile natural phenomena. The problem of collusion and encroaching path of each other, and interference of comets and dust has been as a forming part of space debris. Things have become riskier with the humans’ entry. This has generated a genuine apprehension of damage to the adverse environment of outer space. In this connection, the UNCOPUOS has been working on the agenda of sustainable space. In 2010, the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee of the UNCOPUOS created a Working Group on the Long-Term Sustainability of Outer Space Activities to develop a consolidated set of voluntary, non-binding guidelines for the States, international organisations, and private entities to ensure sustainable space. In this connection, the present paper discusses various aspects of sustainable space including possible applicability of SDGs to outer space. The part one of the paper introduces the concept of sustainable development. It also highlights the global environmental protection regime and underneath politics. Part two of the paper canvases the role of space (technologies) in achieving the SDGs. Part three of the paper explores to answer the question “whether SDGs includes Space in it or not?” If not, how the idea of “sustainable space” can be achieved? There, the authors explain the need for sustainable space and discussion happening around. In part four, authors conclude by arguing for evolving regime for sustainable space and resist from committing the same mistake that we did to the earth environment.
